i seek a mod on proChristmas

[ted890]

hi,

first good job on proChristmas.
I found it to be closer to what i was looking for. The point is that i was trying to increase the size of the header to 1024x400.
I did try a few things from other styles but no success.
I know i wrecked a bit your hard work if you look at the forum i am trying to make:
Sorry about that....
Right now i am awaiting a banner and some more stuff to replace the pic in the background.
I don't need to tell you that i am a newbee, i guess you figured it out.
I choose this still regarding the proportions and the fact that i could put easily pictures on the side (wish i wasn't that bad).
I hope that you can help me on that.

Thanks

Hello and Thank You

For adjusting the style header height
OPEN themes/common.css

FIND

Code: Select all

.headerbar {
   background: #ebebeb none repeat-x 0 0;
   color: #FFFFFF;
   margin-bottom: 4px;
   padding: 0 5px;
}

Change to

Code: Select all

.headerbar {
   background: #ebebeb none repeat-x 0 0;
   color: #FFFFFF;
   margin-bottom: 4px;
   padding: 0 5px;
   height:      400px;
}

For the width
FIND

Code: Select all

#wrap {
       padding: 0 20px;
       min-width: 700px;
       width: 900px;
       margin: 0 auto;
}

Change the width: 900px; rule to your desired width.

Save, upload and go to the ACP > Styles Tab > Themes > proChristmas > Refresh

You may need to clear your browsers cache also.

Hi,

Thanks for the help Topdown.
I did try first to edit the common.css in the ACP edit, but no success the display is still the same.
I then did the changes on my computer with an editor and then uploaded on the server. Did empty the cache in ACP then the cache on the server and refreshed the theme but still no success, the display still hasn't changed.
I'm banging my head against the wall.

Ooopppss... i re-edit this post, In the ACP panel, i did tick ''Overwrite user style'' in board setting to NO submit then to yes submit then i got the 400px i was looking for but not the width. Might be good to know for another dummy like me...

Otherwise, would it be possible to keep only the background picture(the one we see on the side) that this one cross the banner what make this picture for the header and side ????
Maybe i am asking too much...

My pic was too small!!! Thanks again Topdown.... You saved me a lot lot of time...
